OK, I know this is really a minor annoyance, but I was wondering if anyone else had the same problem or if there was a way to fix it. NBC programs in the Now Playing list have always had the NBC icon next to them. About 1 1/2 years ago our local NBC affiliate and ABC affiliate switched. The lineups and guide data changed appropriately, but now anything that is recorded on the new ABC has an NBC logo next to it (Desperate Housewives, LOST, All My Children...). I reported on the Tivo website as lineup error twice, but it was never resolved. I assumed it must have been an error with my Tivo, but recently I upgraded to a newer Tivo and the same problem is there. Any ideas?

I'd imagine that those icons are controlled by somesort of flag in the guide data that never got switched. Probably as it isn't as overt as the actual programming list, etc, somebody overlooked it.

You would think that it would get caught eventually, but things like that aren't always fixed. In my area the sound and video for previews on the tv guide channel have now been out of sync for 6 years and nobody has fixed it. Makes for some interesting previews - horror movie trailer audio over romantic comedy trailer video, etc.
